Jan. 31st, 2013 07:45 pmHi, Mum and Dad.
Here's a rundown for the week:
On Monday we had Divination, Astronomy lecture, Transfiguration and Defence. Headmistress Umbridge observed in Transfiguration and she asked a load of questions and interrupted Professor Brutka a lot. (Dad, you would have called it 'kibbitzing' but I don't think she knows that word, so I don't think she would have called it that. Professor Brutka didn't get the slightest bit upset, though, but by the end of the lesson it was hard to remember what he said at the start of it. I hope my notes make more sense!) We exercised and then there was some revising and a revue rehearsal.
On Tuesday, we made potions in Potions. We cast some charms in Charms. We listened to a ghost in History of Magic. We didn't have Duelling Club because Professor Raz wasn't able to run it. Maybe there will be a newsletter telling you why not.
Yesterday we went back to Divination to see if anything we predicted on Monday came true. Then we did some gardening in Herbology and some animal husbandry in Care of Magical Creatures. And we had another revue rehearsal. And then there was Astronomy at midnight.
Today there was an Arithmancy lesson and we made calculations for that. We cast more charms in Charms. Professor Binns talked some more (actually I think he might have told us about the same goblin battle, but it's hard to tell because after a while they all sound alike). We had more Transfiguration only it wasn't about anything that Professor Brutka taught on Monday, only it made a lot more sense because he wasn't getting interrupted every other sentence. Actually I think a lot of my notes from Monday are the answers to the questions that Headmistress Umbridge asked him. So if you want to know where he taught in Canada I can probably tell you.
We also had a Noble Arts lesson but Professor Dolohov is still not back in the classroom so we have loads of reading assignments and we sort of all talked through the chapter. And there's been more exercising and revising tonight.
Tomorrow I expect we'll brew some more potions and pet some more creatures but I think we'll probably have to read more during Defence and Noble Arts. At least it's a Friday.
